I'll assume that you're talking about Class::MethodMaker. MethodMaker defines its methods on-the-fly when the class loads. When you ask "where do they put the accessors?", do you mean "where is the accessor implementation written out to a file?"? If that's what you mean, the accessor implementation isn't written out to a file-- it's just evaluated at compile-time.
To modify these methods, you just need to define your own. To quote from the perldoc:
To override any generated methods, it is sufficient to ensure that the
overriding method is defined when Class::MethodMaker is called. Note
that the use keyword introduces a BEGIN block, so you may need to
define (or at least declare) your overriding method in a BEGIN block.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
